Colorado captain Gabriel Landeskog scored his first NHL goal in nearly three years, Logan O'Connor had a short-handed tally and the Avalanche beat the Dallas Stars 4-0 in Game 4 to even their first-round series.

It would be hard not to compare and contrast the current state of the Avalanche to what the organization faced after Game 4 against the Dallas Stars a season ago.

The Dallas Stars take the ice once again for Game 4 of their first-round series against the Colorado Avalanche. The Stars enter the game looking to take a commanding 3-1 series lead after having won back-to-back overtime playoff games for the first time in franchise history.
